KEXP Reviews

The latest album from the former Pavement frontman is a trippy, at times bracing thrill ride combining heady psych-rock guitar jams with absurdist lyrics for a sound that splits the difference between his former band and any number of ‘60s rock touchstones. Backing band the Jicks (including former Sleater-Kinney drummer Janet Weiss) provide sympathetic accompaniment that allows Malkmus plenty of room to roam around. 2/25/2008
